Maybe if you take this post as a singular occurrence but I've noticed many such post in the last week alone.
In the end Google is the biggest advertising agency in the world. Advertising makes money by pushing people to make irrational choices - buy products and services that they don't need; buy from the vendor with bigger marketing budget, rather than superior engineering; overspend on stuff they need - e.g. cars, etc.
Airing out philosophical and theoretical disagreements with the ad model is merely a rationalization after the fact in this situation.
